In the ealy 90s I took a course in Manhattan on the subject of cinematic staging from director Benjamin Hayeem (1933â2004). It was quite thorough, interesting and useful. A lot of people are unaware of this information but they want to act like experts, so they shoot whatever angles strike their fancy without regard to continuity, flow and story, insist âthere are no rulesâ and actively resist learning the century-old cinematic traditions that make possible that âhigh level visual math shit.â
